Lincoln Computer Centre provides remote support services via the internet where we may need to access your computer during a telephone support call to solve a particular technical issue. So that's all well and good, the trouble is that internet scammers use exactly the same technology so you need to be very cautious about who you allow to access your computer. If you are unsure, hang up and use your own resources to call back the technician using White Pages, Yellow Pages, Google or phone a friend!
Do not rely on any phone numbers or web pages suggested by the caller.
